If you are inside during an earthquake, get away from windows and heavy objects not fastened to the wall. Cover your head with your hands and curl into a ball as tight as possible, and seek protection under a desk or table, or in an inside corner if a desk or table is not available. Standing in a doorway is dangerous, as the door will swing violently.
If you are outside, try to get to an open area where there are less objects that can fall upon you. Cover your head with your hands and curl into as tight a ball as possible.
